Exfu RF Microneedling
EXFU RF Microneedling – Fractional Gold‑Plated Precision
Overview & Technology
EXFU RF Microneedling combines insulated, gold‑plated microneedles with adjustable‑depth bipolar radiofrequency to remodel skin at both superficial and mid‑dermal levels. Each microneedle penetrates with precision, sparing the epidermis while delivering controlled thermal energy to collagen‑rich zones. This dual stimulation triggers collagen I/III production, elastin repair, and extracellular matrix remodelling, effectively addressing texture, scarring, acne and stretch marks. EXFU’s needle design and energy calibration minimise surface trauma while maximising results.
Key Benefits
- Refines pores, fine lines, crepey skin and uneven texture.
- Improves acne scarring and helps manage breakouts safely.
- Targets body concerns including stretch marks (abdomen, thighs, arms).
- Stimulates collagen and elastin renewal for firmer, tighter skin.
- Gold‑plated, insulated needles reduce risk of post‑inflammatory hyperpigmentation (PIH).
- Shorter downtime than ablative lasers.
How It Compares
Compared with dermapens and rollers, EXFU’s medical‑grade depth control ensures sterility, precision, and superior collagen stimulation. Against older RF microneedling systems, EXFU’s insulation directs energy deep into the dermis while sparing the surface, reducing discomfort and risk.
Versus Secret RF or Sylfirm X, EXFU offers more consistent pulse energy and advanced tip geometry, resulting in more even coagulation zones and predictable outcomes.
Morpheus8, though well‑known, often delivers variable results due to uninsulated needles and greater surface trauma. EXFU’s insulated, gold‑plated design elevates safety and precision, making it the gold standard in RF microneedling.
Treatment Process
Skin is cleansed and a topical anaesthetic applied for 20–30 minutes. The EXFU handpiece delivers fractional passes at tailored depths, adjusting energy levels by zone and concern. Typical protocols include multiple passes over scars, stretch marks, or fine lines. Following treatment, Cold Hammer Cryo‑therapy or Dermalux LED may be applied to reduce redness and accelerate healing.
Typical Treatment Times
- Full face: 45–60 min (+30 min numbing)
- Neck add‑on: 15–20 min
- Targeted scars or stretch marks: 20–45 min
Progressive Results
Initial glow and smoother feel can appear within a week. Collagen renewal and scar remodelling develop progressively over 6–12 weeks. A course of 3 sessions (spaced 4–6 weeks apart) is recommended for optimal improvement, with maintenance every 6–12 months.
Treatment Recommendations
Mild texture or early lines: 1–2 sessions may suffice.
Acne scarring or stretch marks: 3–4 sessions recommended at 4–6 week intervals.
Maintenance: every 6–12 months, or combined with HIFU for lift and texture synergy.
Aftercare
- o make‑up for 24 hours; use only gentle cleanser and bland moisturiser.
- SPF 30+ daily is essential; avoid direct sun and heat for 1–2 weeks.
- Avoid active skincare (retinoids, AHAs/BHAs, vitamin C) for 5–7 days.
- Hydrate well and allow natural healing.
Contraindications
- Active acne flares or skin infection.
- Eczema, psoriasis or dermatitis in the treatment area.
- Keloid tendency or poor wound healing.
- Recent isotretinoin use (within 6–12 months).
- Pregnancy or breastfeeding.
Risks & Side Effects
- Transient redness, swelling and pinpoint crusting (24–72 hours).
- Dryness or flaking for several days.
- Rare: PIH (reduced with gold‑plated insulation and sun protection).
- Very rare: infection or prolonged sensitivity.
Suitability
All genders welcome. Safe for Fitzpatrick I–VI with careful parameter selection. Excellent choice for clients with acne scars, enlarged pores, fine lines, or stretch marks.

EXFU 980+ RF Microneedling
About the Condition & Core Causes
Age, UV exposure, and hormonal changes weaken collagen and elastin fibres, causing texture irregularities, enlarged pores, and fine lines. Scarring from acne or trauma disrupts dermal uniformity, creating visible pitting. As fibroblast turnover slows, circulation and oxygen delivery decrease, resulting in dullness and loss of firmness. Standard topical care cannot repair collagen depletion because it cannot penetrate beyond the epidermis.
Core Scientific Principle
EXFU 980+ RF Microneedling delivers controlled bipolar radiofrequency energy through ultra-fine gold-plated needles that penetrate the dermis while protecting the epidermis. Gold plating improves conductivity and biocompatibility, reducing irritation and ensuring even energy dispersion. The system creates microthermal channels while heating collagen fibres to ≈ 40–45 °C, stimulating fibroblast activity and controlled tissue remodelling. This dual mechanism combines mechanical and thermal stimulation to rebuild dermal architecture from within.
Treatment Overview
A precision treatment that resurfaces and remodels skin without ablation. It treats fine lines, scars, enlarged pores, and general laxity. Microneedles deliver RF energy at variable depths (0.5–3.5 mm) to target both superficial and mid-dermal layers. The result is firmer, smoother skin with renewed vitality.
Clinical Insight – Aeternitas Interpretation
Aeternitas calibrates the EXFU 980+ RF system using impedance feedback and fractional pulse sequencing to maintain consistent thermal profiles across the treatment zone. Each cartridge is sterile and single-use. Energy mapping is customised to skin density, moisture and sensitivity. Devices operate under CE and MHRA compliance, supervised by a registered Laser Protection Adviser (LPA). Calibration, temperature logs and needle integrity checks are documented under the Aeternitas Device Compliance Framework. This ensures medical-grade performance within a mobile, certified aesthetic setting.
Treatment Benefits
• Tightens and refines skin texture
• Reduces fine lines and wrinkles
• Improves acne scars and pore size
• Stimulates long-term collagen and elastin regeneration
• Enhances tone, radiance and resilience
• Minimal downtime with visible improvement
Suitable Conditions
Primary – Acne scarring, enlarged pores, laxity, fine lines, photo-damage.
Secondary – Uneven tone, rough texture, loss of elasticity after weight change.
Preventative – Collagen maintenance for clients in their 30s–40s to preserve firmness and delay visible ageing.
Treatment Experience
After topical numbing, a sterile gold-plated cartridge delivers controlled energy pulses. Clients feel brief warmth or pressure as the needles create microchannels. Mild redness or swelling subsides within 24 hours. Full recovery typically occurs within 48 hours.
Safety, Recovery & Regulation
Procedures are carried out under aseptic technique. All consumables are single-use. Devices are audited quarterly for output uniformity and electrical safety. Associates receive RF Microneedling certification and maintain compliance logs under the Aeternitas Dual-Index System.
Comparison to Other Beauty Treatments
Standard microneedling only causes mechanical stimulation and cannot reach consistent thermal collagen remodelling. Consumer or salon RF devices lack regulated impedance control and needle depth accuracy. EXFU 980+ delivers precise energy with gold-plated sterility and clinical feedback systems, giving predictable results with minimal trauma.
Result Longevity & Maintenance
Collagen rebuilding begins after 2 weeks and peaks around 8–12 weeks. Improvements last 12 months or longer depending on skin health. Quarterly maintenance preserves structure and tone.
Photographic Evidence & Consent
Before-and-after high-resolution images are documented under the Aeternitas Clinical Photography & Consent Protocol. Records are stored securely under GDPR.
Future Technology
EXFU 980+ forms part of the future EXFU Glacier hybrid programme, integrating RF, cryo-cooling and electroporation for faster recovery and enhanced collagen response.
Recommended Course
Three sessions spaced 4 weeks apart, followed by maintenance every 4–6 months.
Men vs Women
Men benefit from reduced pore size, smoother shaving surface, and improved jawline firmness. Women experience refined texture, tighter contours, and softened lines. Energy depth is adjusted: men’s thicker dermis and higher sebaceous density require deeper, stronger pulses; women’s protocols focus on mid-dermal rejuvenation and texture refinement.
Lifestyle & Psychological Insight
Hydration, high-protein diet, and antioxidant support improve fibroblast recovery. Clients often report restored confidence as scars and roughness smooth out naturally. Understanding the science reassures clients that visible results stem from genuine biological regeneration, not temporary swelling.
Aftercare & Contraindications
Avoid heat, saunas, and heavy exercise for 48 hours. Use only sterile hydration serums and SPF 50.
Contraindications: pregnancy, metal implants, pacemaker, active acne outbreak, infection, keloid tendency, or recent filler (< 2 weeks).
